Object: Michigan Seeks to Stop Coercive Abortions
Perhaps the most hidious crime that the LLL ( Looney Liberal Left ) is guilt
of is the labeling of those amongst their ranks who coerce women into
unwanted abortions as "egalitarians". Ladies, these men are not out for your
best interests, they're out for their own. To them you are just chattel
http://www.family.org/cforum/news/a0039896.cfm
Bill would allow 24-hour waiting period for women forced into killing their
preborn children.
With studies indicating as many as four in 10 women are pressured into
abortions by a boyfriend or parent, Michigan is working to become the first
state to address the problem legislatively.
The Coercive Abortion Prevention Act (CAPA), which is being opposed by
Planned Parenthood, would allow a 24-hour waiting period for a woman if it
is determined she was pressured to end her pregnancy. Sen. Michelle McManus,
the sponsor of the bill, said she wants abortion clinics to find out why
women show up at their door.
"The bill makes it illegal to coerce a female into seeking an abortion," she
said. "We grant a woman the right to a civil lawsuit when she's been
coerced, and require abortion providers to screen for potential coercion."
And the bill gives a woman 24 hours to reconsider and seek help if she is
being forced to end her child's life. McManus said abortion clinics will be
required to tell women of their rights before conducting an abortion.
"And once a woman knows what her legal rights are," she told Family News in
Focus, "she has the opportunity to then seek prosecution."
Barbara Listing, president of Right to Life of Michigan, said McManus'
legislation is pro-woman.
"It does give that woman an avenue, a networking, a way she can talk to
someone," she explained. "And if she is in an abusive situation, (she can)
get help to get out of that abusive situation. So that extra 24-hour waiting
period, I think, will be helpful."
Serrin Foster, president of Feminists for Life, said the plan should get the
support of people on both sides of the abortion debate.
"Those who are pro-life and those who say they believe in all choices,
whether we agree with them or not," she said, "should all agree on the fact
that no woman should have an abortion against her will."

If they're getting pressured into an abortion by a boyfriend, don't you
suppose they were pressured into sex in the first place?
What are you going to do about that?

So much anger over something so inconsequential. What's the difference
- it's 24 hours it's not like they're banning abortions in Michigan.
This decision may haunt a woman for her entire life if she rushes into
it because of pressure from a boyfriend or parent. 1 day - big deal get
over it.

It is a big deal, give them an inch and they quickly take a mile.
Either abortion is a woman's privilege or it is not. What do you
yahoo's get out of causing her an inconvenience. Only in the silly
world of fundies is a woman forced to have an abortion a significant
number of times and only in the fundie world does a woman make a
decision to have a foreign object inserted into her vagina on the spur

Actually your an idiot who offers no good argument to defend your point
of view and i'm a biomedical scientist who does not believe in
organized religion.
I don't know what world you live in but in this world, "the real one"
there are plenty of women who feel pressured by boyfriends and family
members to get an abortion. So they go to the clinic talk to a trained
professional (who is impartial - that means they don't care what the
woman decides one way or another ;) She examines her options and makes
the appointment for the next day. BIG DEAL..... I still don't see the
problem.
Unfortunately aside from some liberal sarcastic babble - you can't give
any real reasons why this is a bad idea. Your an idiot and it's
because of people like you the democrats never had a chance at winning
the election. Here's a tip, if you want a new party next go round -
keep your mouth shut or intelligent democrats will turn into
republicans so they don't have to associate with your kind.

Your post defines you and says nothing about me. You have no
statistics or facts to back up your claim that "there are plenty of
women who feel pressured by their boyfriends and family members to get

Again I can not see a woman going through surgical insult on a whim.
You just want to ***** on the manger. Read the polls lately on where
intelligent Republicans are going.
You are not in touch with any kind of reality. Same old *****,
different *****.

Your right - I have mostly empirical evidence - talking to women who've
had abortions listening to ones who now regret it. You have to be the
most naive person alive if you don't think women get pressured into
having an abortion and later regret it.
You're also not very bright. As I think i've made it blantantly clear
that i'm pro-choice. So I don't really give a hoot what the Iraqi or
Afghani population feels about abortion. Let me say this again (read
slowly) I don't see any harm in educating women about all their options
and letting them come back in 24 hrs once they've had time to think it
over.
If you weren't such a pig headed liberal you'd see this is not an
attack on abortion but an attempt to help women who are in a tough
spot. No one is taking this option away from them. It's fairly common
practice in medicine, when someone is going to have a medical procedure
they're explained about the risks, alternative options (if any exist)
and potential outcomes. Unless its a life or death situation people
take a few days to think it over and schedule their appointment later.
Please provide me with some good hard evidence why this is a bad idea?
That's all I want. Leave your sarcastic liberal b.s. at the door and
present some evidence that this would be harmful to women........We're
waiting.....

You have anechdotal evidence and the idea that women don't think or know

I would also suggest that before saying someone is not very bright you read

Let's be careful not to twist my words. I said some woman feel
pressured into abortions by boyfriends and/or parents. Do you deny
that this occurs? "He's going to leave me if I don't get an abortion -
"I can't let my parents find out I got knocked up I need to get an
abortion." Are you saying this type of thing never happens in your
area?
If that's true - I really need to know what they're adding to your

Why would these women need counseling? Well if you found out you were
carrying a child and were considering having an abortion, wouldn't you
want to know what the procedure involved, what the potential side
effects were etc. (of course that kind of counseling already happens)
The new idea is that a women generally gets to see a health
professional alone - without the boyfriend breathing down her neck.
She's now also given information/diagrams as to the stage/development
of her fetus, given prenatal care information and parenting
information. The law is called "informed consent." The woman is also
given legal advice if necessary - ie parents saying they'll have the
child taken away if you decide to have it etc. etc. (Maybe in the
perfect world that you exist in - these types of situations don't come
up but they're not that uncommon in the US)

no pressure involved in her decision.

Blackmailed? I can't get into the crazy liberal mindset to figure out
how this could be construed as black mail....please fill me in.....
Here's a fun thought: How come so many of the "extreme left" are
marching up an down the streets with their signs protesting the brutual
slaying of Americans and Iraqi's during the war and just a few years
earlier these same people were out at the streets protesting the ban on
partial birth abortion (you know the one where they extract the legs of
the fetus, stab a pair of scissors through the skull and aspirate out
the brain..)
Guess i'll never understand the thought processes.

Yes, you can. It's shoving pictures of cute little babies in front of

Here's a fun thought: How come so many of the "extreme left" are
marching up an down the streets with their signs protesting the brutual
slaying of Americans and Iraqi's during the war and just a few years
earlier these same people were out at the streets protesting the ban on
partial birth abortion (you know the one where they extract the legs of

Because we see the big big difference between a dead person and a dead

No, actually I don't. The term itself was made up by an anti-abortion non

abortions. This includes the removal of dead fetuses as the result of
miscarriages and is the most probable reason for the action.
Your ignorant discription is precisely the type of comment expected from

Mmmmm... I sense a prior hostility between you two... no particular
reason, just this feeling I have. :))
I also sense a misunderstanding. You are more or less right if somewhat
histrionic ("stab a pair of scissors through the brain"??!!). From
emedicine:
"Dilatation and extraction
* This procedure is accomplished by cervical preparation similar to
cases of dilatation and evacuation, but the fetus is removed in a mostly
intact condition. The fetal head is made of cartilage and is able to be
collapsed after the contents are evacuated so that it may pass through
the cervix.
* Very few providers perform the procedure. It is usually reserved for
cases of maternal medical complications or fetal abnormalities.
* With an intact fetus, the family may hold their baby and have time to
say good-bye as part of the grieving process. Reconstituting the fetal
head with a jellied substance can restore fetal anatomy.
* The procedure has also been referred to as intact dilatation and
extraction and has been called partial-birth abortion by abortion
opponents."
The skull, such as it is at that stage, is collapsed to make it easier
to remove through the cervix with minimal damage to the woman- vital in
cases such as encephalitis where the head is abnormally large.

Here's one more just in case you think there is a conspiracy at hand
and Wikipedia articles are written by the religious right. This one is
from emedicine - generally a trusted source of medical information.
http://www.emedicine.com/MED/topic5.htm
(its about half way down the page - under dilation/extraction - they're
not quite as graphic with their description but an interesting read.
